Lu asked : You speak of a limbo with no structure and context as frightening. Maybe it is frightening because, as you said, we cannot leave our structures and obligations behind. If we did not have such ties we would have no problem. Then we would find “true happiness”? Are you speaking of death?
\nPerhaps Lu, I am speaking of Death, but not as Death as an end, for in our mind even death is context by which we view life …<\/p>\n
\nFirst, what is ‘no structure and context’ frightening to ? It is frightening to the mind and to the ego. For the Ego cannot survive without context. And if are able to seperate our selves between ‘me the ego’ and ‘me the observer of my ego’ then we can observe how frightened the ego, (or lets give it the name ‘mind’) is when you take away context and structure. That is the battle though. The battle to be able to seperate the ‘I’ and the observer of the ‘I’, both of them being the correlation between your mind and your consciousness. And the understanding of ‘ who is the observer’ of the ‘I’ ? Is the observer also the mind, or does the observer sit outside the mind ? Is that what we call consciosness.
\nDeath ? I am not talking about the passing away of life. I am speaking of the ability to come out of the mind as an observer within this existence of what we percieve as life . But that is another discussion. For if there is no concept of linear time, then there is no passage of time between Birth and Death. They happen at exactly the same moment in Time and Space. And then if that is true, then they exist not in any particular space or time, but in eternity.
\nYou exist (not existed) before your percieved birth, and after your percieved death, and the perception of your birth and death exist in a continual eternal existence.
\nTrue happiness ? That is also a play of the mind and the ego. Perhaps we should be talking about true happiness in context of harmony with the Tandav Dance of Shiva. In my next post I will put forward the ideas of the Tandav dance of Shiva,
